Thanks for the extra shots - love that spine work!! The tang guards are really cool too, hopefully you can retain them after resto.

Very nice Boker and im sure she will be a great shaver as well.
*whistles* look at them fancy pants 'ngravins. I would restore this blade as well, so you are not alone in wanting to do it. Keep the spines and scales, don't throw them away! Some guy...almost a hundred years ago gave a lot of thought and planning into making this a stylish razor!
Beautiful razor, imp, worth the money, not too many green scales out there either. Could be a real stunner.

Sorry for the tiny pic, this picture is about 11 years old -- I owned this razor then, I only posted it to show possible scales...
Thoughtful post stimpy!
I would be very happy to see a collection of similarly designed Bokers on this thread.
:)
Very nice razor. Sometimes it comes with very beautiful patina. But I have never seen this well known blade with green scales. Usually it comes with black handle.
This H.Boker very much resemble yours. I have one more razor by H.Boker, with covered tongue, but no photo at the moment. It also has black scales.
